TSA destroys first RepRap child

Since I just got back from a trip that involved a reasonable amount of flying, including watching some seriously Laurel and Hardy antics at the Detroit TSA screening machine, bags all dropped and bounced, I think it's a testament to the failure of our government that these bozos have anything to do with air travel.

Of course DTW (Detroit airport) always makes me wonder that we don't have airplanes falling out of the sky: People have bought tickets, you know how many people will show up, how hard is it to staff appropriately?
